Burn your feet to not escape
Destroy the road to nowhere
And get lost in dead leaves
The sky is watching us

The silent drop of life
Ice trees can see me
The ground is wet
Where the mud is the king

Ice burns!
My hands!
The path!
Revealed!

Old land!
My face!
My eyes!
The space!

Track Name: Desert Tool

DESERT TOOL

Small stream, crossing the dunes
In the middle of nowhere it flows
In the desert it founds the new born
Forming a river
Growing, growing
Becomes bigger and flow in the sea
Becomes bigger and quench my thirst

Came to me

Fly like the wind
Lets your spirit go on
Fly like the wind
Find the water in the drought

Follow the course
Fountain of life
Changing now the direction
To my throat to calm the disease
Came to me
Growing, growing
Becomes bigger and flow in the sea
Becomes bigger and quench my thirst

Came to me

Fly like the wind
Lets your spirit go on
Fly like the wind
Find the water in the drought

Water in drought!

Track Name: Sleepwalker

SLEEPWALKER

Lights of the candles shine
Another day in my life
Shadows of the sun
Show me the way to the stars

The moon in the sky is shining
And the roses fade up
Crystalline essence
Left the river and fly away

Mountain breeze
The wolf is howling again
I’m alone
But I will save myself to fall from grace

I only close my eyes
And find my soul
When the moon has a new born

Midnight goes away
My dream is coming to end
Lights of a new dawn
Blind me and burn my eyes

The owl has die
Its time to wake up again
Morning is here
Welcome to see the unreal life

Mountain breeze
The wolf is howling again
I’m alone
But I will save myself to fall from grace

Track Name: I Am Everything

I AM EVERYTHING

The different ways to see the
Reality, the truth
Pray for me I will think for you

False promise, go to heaven
Tell me what I must do
To save my soul lost in the flood

The perfect God’s creation
Religious robot without mind
The faith to justify the war
False free feeling, forever blind

Is the end!
God has sent!
Angels cry!
Sell your life!

The violence of middles
To justify the ends
The reasons based on fear and hate

Eternal fire sentence
That men can’t understand
Pray all you know, weep all you want

The perfect God’s creation
Religious robot without mind
The faith to justify the war
False free feeling, forever blind

Is the end!
God has sent!
Angels cry!
Sell your life!

The different ways to see the
Reality, the truth
Pray for me I will think for you

False promise, go to heaven
Tell me what I must do
To save my soul lost in the flood
